THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1965' TUC MICHIGAN HAII.V -a -- ---. ..RY," NOVEMBR..8,15uI.LaTafl A1t i PAGE SEVEN q lave 1 By DAN OKRENT "There are plenty of advantages I've enjoyed from being on the team. People know me, I meet people, I get good summer jobs from various alumni. Now, if I had come to this University as a, you know, a person... yd With these'words, Floyd Day is making a grave error. Floyd, hardly a possessor of notoriety as a member of the football squad's "Redshirts" (reserves), can truly be considered, like it or not, a person. Bigger than his 6'2", 202 pounds sound, he is one of the last of the good guys. Every football team, according ' to the PR men, at least, has their Carl Ward, Bill Yearby, or Jack Clancy. Concurrently, every team has more than their share of Floyd Days. But you never hear about the latter. The Club Floyd Day is one of the many athletes who populate the small type on your roster. The members of this hardly select "club" par- ticipate in the daily practices, watch the weekly films, listen to the halftime harangues from the emotion-wrought coaching staff,, ,nd take Astro 111. From there, ou Ever Heard of Floyd Day? Finalists Decided in Wrestling the similarities between the "Blues" and the "Reds" end. The Blues get to play. Floyd Day is a senior in the College of Engineering, a former All-Stater from the womb of mod- ern-day football, Canton, Ohio. Taught under the wing of Mc- Kinley High Coach Pete Ankeny, Floyd was actively recruited by over forty colleges from all over the country. After narrowing down his list to Princeton, Army and Michigan, he decided to come to Ann Arbor. "I wanted to play for a Big Ten school," he says, "but I wanted an education, too." Quarter Hour Since then, Floyd Day has play- ed an aggregate total of 15 min- utes of varsity action in three years. But, remarkably, bitter he's not. "When I came here, I knew it wouldn't be easy. I've tried to make the 'big time,' and whether I've succeeded is questionable. But it was my risk." This is Floyd Day's explanation; his rationale is equally plausible. "I also don't mind getting a good education for free, either." Under Big Ten rules, all players, regardless of grid time logged, have the right to retain any scholarship extended as a freshman as long as he goes to practices and doesn't quit the team. Sort of like tenure. But Floyd does not go to prac- tices just because of the scholar- ship. He also sincerely enjoys be- ing on the team. "I like practice. It gives me some chance for action, and just being a member of the team offers the opportunity for strong, worthwhile friendships. Besides these factors, we've got as good a bunch of coaches as you'll find anywhere." And these coaches think highly of Floyd. "Floyd Day has been a real fine member of the team. In his role as leader of the demonstration defense, he is a key factor in keeping our team going." In this manner, Bump Elliott gives credit to Floyd for one of the most thankless tasks of the football re- serve. Movie Star The "demonstration defense" is the team composed of those who, like Floyd, virtually serve as block- ing dummies for the offensive starters. Week in, week out, middle-guard Day serves as Dick Butkus, "Mad-Dog" O'Billovich, Harold Lucas, Ike Kelley, or who- ever will anchor the following Sa- turday's opponent's defense. And trying to be Harold Lucas while attempting to tackle Dave Fisher isn't easy. Here is where Floyd emits his loudest gripe. Because of his purely stand-in function and the value of the likes of Fisher, Ward, Gab- ler and Company, he is not allowed to hit like a football player likes to hit. Thus, he must wait until Mondays, when the fourth string and below scrimmage the fresh- men. Victory Prize And from this weekly debacle comes Floyd's only distinction in three years as a member of the faithful. As captain of the Red- shirts (something like being the best of the worst), Floyd Day pos- sesses the Toilet Bowl, a roughly carved trophy from the knife of assistant coach Hank Fonde, sym- bolic of victory in each season's final freshman-reserve battle. Saturday, sometime in the middle of the final quarter, the public address announcer will drone the names of those players "appearing in Michigan Stadium for the last time." Somewhere down on the list, after Bill Yearby, Tom Mack, and Tom Cecchini, the announcer will say "Floyd Day" and 85,000 people will shrug their shoulders. But this won't bother Floyd Day. For Floyd Day is of a rare breed: Floyd Day is a nice guy. And nice guys finish last. By JOE O'NEILL The annual fraternity and resi-, dence halls wrestling finals took place last night in the I-M Build- ing. Most of the meets were very close, as shown by the fact that a great majority of the matches were decided on points. The wrestling was of the. de- fensive type for many, as the competitors could win by escaping from their opponent's holds. Sev- eral of the residence hall meets were interupted by cuts and bad nose bleeds in the tough compe- tition. One competitor, Townsend from Strauss House, was knocked unconscious after landing on the mat. In the residence halls, Adams House had two finalists, Yablonky in the 137 pound class, and Korte in the 147 pound class. Yablonky won on a double overtime pin, and Korte picked up penalty points from his opponent to win. Every house in the meet except Wenley placed only one man in the win- ners' circle. Quiroz from Chicago House won on points over McRay of Adams. Newell of Wenley pinned Town- send in a knockout. Sharky of Frost pinned Clark in a quick meet. Aruin outpointed Purdy in the 177 pound class. In the heavy weight finals, Hoyng of Taylor won over Adamo by points. One of the closest meets was won by Young of Wenley in a referee's de- cision over Anderson. In the fraternity division, none of the houses placed more than one man in the winners' spot. Winn, of Phi Delta Theta, won in the 123 pound class, over Oman- siek. Pitt, from Evans Scholars, pinned Lynn of Sigma Nu in the 130 pound class. Michaels, from A.D.P., pinned Moody of D.T.D. in the 137 pound class. Michaels had to wrestle two matches in one night because he didn't com- plete his semifinal match the night before. Pearlman of Phi Lambda Phi outpointed Goldman from Z.B.T. in the 147 middleweight class. Miller of Chi Phi outlasted Lind- low from Phi Delta Theta in the 157 pound class. Sigma Phi's Davidson outpointed Koch of A.T.O. in a hard fought match. Walker from D.T.D. lost to Parker of Phi Gamma Delta by points. In the heavyweight finals, Hilde- brand of D.U. lost a well fought match to Welch of D.T.D. to wrap up the meet. SPORTS NIGHT EDITOR: RICK STERN EI GRID SELECTIONS I!

SHARP enbaum rge Jack Clancy, Wolverine end, re- mained at the number 11 spot among the nation's pass catchers despite his eight receptions in last week's Northwestern contest. Hauling in 46 tosses over the season good for 687 yards, Michi- gan's converted halfback has pick- ed up an average of 15 yards per catch, again one of the top fig- ures in the nation. Other representatives of the Big Ten who rank among the nation's leaders in the weekly NCAA foot- ball statistics include Bob Griese of Purdue, and the Illini bull- dozer, Jim Grabowski. Griese is fifth in passing, and twelfth in total offense, picking up a to- tal of 1,566 yards. Driving for 1,- 071 yards this season, Grabowski earns second place honors in rush- ing. The passing combination of the Tulsa hurricanes, which has blown their foes, right off the field, has gained laurels with their record- breaking feats. Donny Anderson, Tulsa field general, has connect- ed on 23- air strikes for. ,2,7,58 yards while' his' favofiIte target, Howard Twilley, has snared 106 of these bombs to lead the coun- try in both pass receiving and scoring (he also kicks extra points.) In team statistics, Michigan State places fourth in total of- fense, sixth in rushing offense, tenth in scoring, fourth in total defense, first in rushing defense, and first in defense against scor- ing.

(A') - The Naval Academy expressed confi- dence yesterday that its missing goat will be returned before the end of the Army-Navy football game Nov. 27.% The goat, mascot for the Navy team, was reported missing early Sunday from its pen on Navy property across the Severn River from the Naval Academy. A Navy spokesman expressed doubt about one report which said eight Cadets from the U.S. Mili- tary Academy took the goat Sat- urday night after using four girls to distract guards by pretending they were lost and asking for directions. "We don't feel it was done by Cadets," said the academy spokesman. "We have an agreement that we won't steal their mule and they won't steal our goat." One of two other goats owned by the academy will be used as a stand-in mascot if necessary, the spokesman said.
